Busy finishing up a lot of Unfinished Projects

I can't believe how a half year has flown by! Where does the time go? Yikes!!!
My studio is a HOT mess! I have so many unfinished projects and series of New Wall Plaques that should have been completed before Valentines Day! Yes,  Feb. 14th!,  LOL...

I don't think I have ever been this overwhelmed with making so much ART! But, honestly not complaining... LOVE, what I do. Wish the days were longer, or better yet an assistant would be nice.

Here is a New thing that I have been doing to refresh my head... re- arranging type and creating new "Landscapes" and "Perspective" using good ole TYPE.

Here is a sneak peek for a New Tutorial I did for Mod Podge Rocks... to be posted early July.

 It feels great working with collage again, that is "Traditional" as apposed to my Digital Collage.
Any hoot be on the look out for NEW listed items in my shop.

Summer is almost here!

The weather here in New England is perfect this time of year. 

I love eating and entertaining outdoors.

Just because I like to eat outdoors does not mean I skimp on presentation! 

This mini Footstool Centerpiece is perfect for nesting Candles on 

or a station for Condiments for BBQ s. 

What are some of your favorite things to do in the Summer? 

See how I made it here. 

Happy Summer and Happy entertaining!

Fathers Day is almost here!

New Book by "A Collage A Day" artist Randel Plowman

I just love collage! It's fascinating to be able to "re-assemble" images and transform them into something else. Back, In my Art School Days my portfolio consisted of all stylized contemporary collages. Now, I find myself fascinated with Digital Collage too! Photoshop has enabled me to do things otherwise impossible with traditional collage, like transforming an image Bigger or Smaller... I still get excited finding myself on treks to Antique Malls, Garage & Yard Sales in search of ephemera to use in a Collage. I just recently created this new Day of the Dead collage Wall Plaque.



Check out Randel Plowman's blog A Collage A Day and get his book here. This book is a great instructional book with many wonderful tutorials...Highly Recommend!

What have I been up to, lately?

Sorry, for not posting much on my blog... Between renovating the Upstairs rental unit and being sick with the FLU, I am trying to catch up... Stay tuned! There will be a lot of changes here on this blog. You can expect book reviews and posts on fellow artist work(s), things that inspire me and some tutorials too! Haven't had much time to photograph my new Art pieces due to lack of time. I will be listing these new 6" X 6" and 8" X 8" inch Wall Plaques soon to the shop. Until then, Thanks for stopping by!
